P.s.s. the guy that said we americans are babies is a moron. we dont whine about how many tv channels we have, you must have no concept of what to struggle really means. we are losing our homes, jobs and educational opportunities everyday. your rite that there are alot of people that dont know what it is like to struggle here in the usa... but all that means is that they are living the "american dream". your quick to judge your country based off of what you see on tv and that makes your opinions false. if we cant afford to take care the portion of our country (big or small) that truely knows what its like to suffer then how on earth can we afford to take care of haiti??? how are our fellow americans any less important that anyone else? we are however accustomed to a life that is in comparison far more comfortable... BUT THAT IS BECAUSE WE WORKED HARD FOR HUNDREDS OF YEARS FOR THAT STYLE OF LIFE, and why should we appologize for that? WE SHOULDNT AND WONT... we need to help ourselves all get back to our american lifestyle so that we can help others without hesitation in the future. i have the ability to see struggle everyday and im guessing you dont. i think your conclusion is unjust, ignorent and an absolute slap in the face to your american brothers and sisters. cga...@yahoo.com.

As an American i really thought people would lean one way on this Haiti response (that being Help for the Haitian people is warranted). However, according to a CNN poll yesterday 57% of Americans have not donated any money to the recovery in Haiti. Americans are stingy, and yes, we are suffering right now, but we use the word suffer in a different context. While a small portion of americans know what it means to truly suffer, most don`t. To a lot of americans only having 100 channels to choose from is suffering. To some, not getting 3 days off every week is suffering. Americans (and remember i am one) are in general babies. We whine when we get our way and we whine when we don`t. The fact of the matter is this country needed help and we were the closest and most fit country to help them. The current gov`t in Haiti was doing a lot to help transform their country...more so than any other president/leader in their history. Now that has to start over and its a costly procedure to do so. My hope is that the Haitian government will be able to rebuild and turn their country around, then all these Americans who are crying about suffering can go their on vacation and tell the Haitian people how horrible it is to live in America.
Cheers.

I agree the U.s. should give money to Haiti and so far they have given more money than any other country and Brad Pitt himself has given more money than China has given. The United States is in a depression but it still is the world leader and has more capital than any other country. However when the United States was struck with Hurricane Katrina no other country provided money to help the United States. When the terrorist attacks of 2001 happened no one donated money to the United States. Proportionally United States has given more money to disaster relief in the last 15 years than the country of Holland makes in one year. In my opinion United States is doing a great job although some of their people are complaining the majority are leading an helping hand and my country (Germany) really looks up to the United States for helping rebuild our nation after World War Two and that took almost 15 years to finish. Overall United States is one of my favorite countries in the world and I plan to move there when my son gets done with college.

I completly agree with giving food, doctors donating time, and agree with having a "clean-up" crew to remove bodies and hazards from the affected area..... but i COMPLETLY DISAGREE WITH GIVING THEM MONEY WE DONT HAVE!! why do they need money when eveything they NEED and most likely didnt have in the first place is being donated? i feel that any money donated will be "forgotten" or "lost". i live down the street from hundreds of homeless people sleeping on the streets, next door from a family of 7 losing their home because of unemployment (due to the lack of money coming in to support the store) and forced to hang out with intelligent friends that graduated high school but unable to continue into college because of their families financial situations... all these people would directly benefit if we invested in ourselves instead of supporting haiti financially. i may not have written this perfectly but i support my beliefs. please feel free to let me know your opinions by emailing me at cga...@yahoo.com.

To Mr. Holland a.k.a The Netherlands, screw you. Do you know how many soldiers in Iraq need money, but no. Our wonderful president Obama would rather waste it on Haiti instead of his own country. And Mr. UK, we have not forgotten Katrina and we helped ourselves more than anyone helped us. We care about our own first and others second. So, us as american`s need to focus on our soldiers, not only in Iraq but everywhere. We need to give them what they need first before we go around "saving the world". The USA cannot save everyone, we have to save ourselves before we can deal with someone else. So all of you "down playing" America, screw you. Besides America does not have any money to spend. We are spending China`s money. First we need to get out of debt and stop making money that is not worth anything and focus on our soldiers. Our soldiers have done more than the average American.

Why is it that when anything bad happens the United States feels obligated to have to send hundreds and thousands of dollars to help them and yet we can`t even stand to help ourselves. The United States is now in $14.3 trillion dollars in debt thanks to our "wonderful" president...yes you can look it up it says on BBC News in black and white that our president has put us further into debt. And so what makes them think that sending over nearly a million dollars to a country that we had little to do in the first place...whats with that?
So i have a question...with a country that has NOTHING....how will it help to build THEIR government?....I`m just sayin that OUR UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT should "clean there own back yard" before trying to help others and theirs.

We don`t need to give our money to thieves. We don`t need to let all of the victums come to america. The last thing we need is a bunch of uneducated homeless people. However, we cant let people suffer and do without so much. I think the U.S. should take over Haiti. Now ever dollar we spend is an investment, ad we make sure the right people get it. Not sure what would be the best idea for commerce. I am sure we could think of something. First build roads and homes and a water and sewage system. Then ports, a large air port, schools and go from there. This could be the best thing that ever happened for Haiti in the long run, or we could screw it up. I bet we screw it up and our children will be faced with this problem to. What to do with Haiti?

Im not real sure how much the us has given.the one thing i do know is that there are people in haiti who needs help and people as a human race should step up and help anyone in need.sure we have our own problems here but if people start staying in the mind set that they just want to help themselves then we will all have a life that was not worth living to begin with.i have read a few of these blogs and it seems to me that alot of people wont help unless they feel they are getting something in return.thats not called help.u will never help anyone if expect something back.i applaud all the wonderrful people who have decided to help a country that is basically third world.

I would like to believe that the MAJORITY of US citizens are truly sincere in their desire to offer aid to 3rd world countries in genuine need. The handfull of moaners who feel that the US is somehow being ripped-off by donating, are not doing any donating themselves.
Rather, be thankful that you live in the reputed `best country in the world` and stop the `ignorant trash talk`, nobody wants to hear you. Keep in mind that the people of the USA have the financial capability to make right all the social injustices within your borders, all you need is the will to do so..........just do it, rather than be guided by your own greed of the almighty dollar!

P.s. greed has nothing to do with this.... people are losing faith in the usa... yes we can remember the great things we`ve done in the past but if we continue to suffer the way we are here ... and i mean real suffering through hardships not seen on tv shows that make us look ignorent... i mean people that were able to grasp the american dream by working hard for years and loose it practically overnight because of the effect our financial situation has had on our jobs. i speak as a teenager surrounded in poverty... i live in north las vegas and i see the reasons we need to help ourselves everyday. cga...@yahoo.com.

If I inherited my grandfather's house, who declares the interest and taxes I paid on their tax form? my tax form or the executor on a 1041 (k-1)?

The trust only has about $10,000 left after all expenses, debt, etc. has been paid. There was no income gain during that time. Do we need to file a 1041 (k-1)? And do I get to claim the taxes and interest paid on the house that I inherited, but it is still in the trust's name?
